Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds is set to meet with Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) executives and union leaders to address the anticipated job cuts at the company. JLR has initiated a voluntary redundancy program, with reports suggesting up to 4,000 positions may be affected due to tariffs and declining sales following a significant cyber attack last year that severely disrupted production.
The company aims to streamline operations and enhance efficiency, although it has not confirmed the exact number of job losses. Union representatives have expressed concerns about ongoing challenges in the automotive sector, highlighting the need for government support to mitigate these impacts.
